I don’t know what to do

[David Esparza]

Going on vacation on Monday through Friday and don’t have anybody that can feed my fish and suggestions ? I’m worried about them dying

 

[WIReefer]

Can you set up an automatic feeder? If not they should be fine till you get back

 

[NashobaTek]

Get a auto feeder if you can. But they should be fine for several days

I wouldn't worry about it. They won't die going without food for a few days. You can feed them more in these days before you leave. If you do go for a feeder, don't set it up right before you leave. Sometimes feeders dump too much food in, and if you're not around to make sure you've set it correctly, there's probably a greater risk of fish dying that way, than the other way around.

Definitely check how much food it dumps. I have two of the Ehiem auto feeders on alternating schedules and opeing the slot very little can dump a LOT of food.

Even if you are gone for a week; starvation isn’t very far up the list of things that could kill your tank..
This is where Apexes become valuable

I’ve seen white blocks that are for fresh water and reef tanks that can feed your fish for up to 7 days or some up to 14 days
